joining us now for reaction to the president's positive covid test. jen, thanks for joining us and jumping on to talk -- >> good morning, yasmin. >> good morning. give me your reaction first in hearing the president has in fact tested positive. i'm sure you're not surprised at this point. >> no, i think, yasmin, as many would expect who have been following it closely, i think we've been preparing or they've been preparing for this probably for several months now given the percentage of people in the country who have tested positive. what -- they were probably bracing for impact before they made the statement this morning because they knew there would be a lot of reactions, obviously from media, but certainly maybe from the markets, from other leaders. but what they've done so far over the last less than an hour since the news came out is done two smart thing, one is they've been transparent, they made clear that he was taking paxlovid, his symptoms have been mild and the second thing they did was to make clear that they would be giving daily updates.
